Guiding Principles:
- GLOBALLY CONNECTED. Although the courses take place online, GOA utilizes technology to build improbable and important relationships. Small classes, guided by expert teachers, filled with students from across the world, encourage engaging discussions and collaborative projects.
- CHALLENGING. GOA courses match the intellectual rigor of traditional school courses. They follow an asynchronous approach, providing students with the flexibility to work at their own speed while developing essential independent learning skills.
- RELEVANT. GOA empowers students to pursue their passions by offering hands-on experience and autonomy in selecting coursework and exploring ideas that resonate with their interests.
